    168, Felix doesn't have to re-hydrate but he wears the same wraps Calzaghe has. Who wins?

    Calzaghe by wide decision. Slappy Joe is simply too quick on his feet for Tito.

    Joe at 168 was too much for Tito. I was never interested in that match up when it was being discussed then, and I still say the same.

    Trinidad really had no business above 154.

    I think you guys are severly underestimating Tito. He's not Jeff Lacy, and Joe is not as slick as Hopkin. If Tito manages to keep his power at 168 (and I think he would), I gives him a really good chance against Joe.

    Trinidad taped like he was in the Joppy fight either wins early or loses by "stoppage" around the 9th.

    Tito would lose, but he'd be more competitive than Lacy was with Joe snd more competitive than he was with Hopkins. Tito was better than Lacy, and Calz wasn't on the same level as 01 Hopkins.

    it's true that Tito is not on the level of legends such as Robbed Reid and Kabary Salem

    At 168? Yeah that is true. Tito would have lost every second to the Hopkins that Calzaghe beat too.

    Calzaghe fought a lot of shit, hardly a news flash. He fought some good fighters too. As I said, I'd still pick the Hopkins who Calzaghe beat to kick Tito's ass.
